Judgments and Respect

Good late morning my friends. For those of you that don’t know I have been off from work since last Sunday. My doctor felt that I needed a rest. So that’s what I have been doing. So here is what is on my mind…Planet Fitness maybe a judgement free zone, but that seems like that is one of very few places that are.

I mean what the fuck people? I have heard grown folk who should be lifting each other up on a daily basis call each other names like small children. Not that bright, selfish, bitchy, lazy, stupid, ordinary and the list could go on and on. This bothers the fuck out of me. Nobody is perfect by any means and the negativity blasting off people right now makes long days longer and good people assholes. To be frank it makes other people not want to be around.

My work days are filled with people who have very little control of their emotions because of mental illness or defect. It’s a hard job and mentally exhausting. People with all their screws should know better. When I go places and the people there can’t treat each other or customers with respect and dignity I don’t want to go back. My list is getting pretty long.

When people want something or need something it’s great to speak out. I am all for it, but make sure you are asking, not telling, talking to, not at and don’t think people can read your mind. If I could do that I would be rich.

My world is not that big, I don’t own much and I don’t need much. What I do need is to be treated like a human being. With the simple dignity and respect all people deserve. If you can not give those things I feel sorry for you.

I just sat back in my chair to take time to figure out how to answer this post. My life is not very bent on outside contact. I try to excuse myself when I’m in the way or walk too slow. I always wave a thank you when someone in a car stops to let me cross. I try to do little things to make sure I don’t offend. Respect for others is my primary mission. This is not a difficult thing to do. Try it and you will feel better I know I do,
